To study the angiogenic activity of amphoteric brush-type copolymer complex of alginate-graft-PEI/pVEGF (Alg-g-PEI/pVEGF) in vivo, we evaluated the toxicity of Alg-g-PEI/pVEGF complexes to rMSCs and zebra fish first. Then, we used gel retardation assay to investigate the protection of complex to pDNA against DNase I, serum and heparin. For in vivo study, we evaluated the angiogenic activity of Alg-g-PEI/pVEGF complexes by using CAM and zebra fish as animal models, PEI 25K/pVEGF and saline as positive and negative controls. Our results show that Alg-g-PEI protected pVEGF from enzymolysis and displacement of heparin in some degree, and its complexes with pVEGF were less toxic to rMSCs and zebra fish. Alg-g-PEI/pVEGF complexes induced significant angiogenesis, which was dosage-dependent. In CAM, when the dosage of pVEGF was 2.4 microg/CAM, Alg-g-PEI group achieved the maximum of angiogenesis, and the area ratio of vessel to the total surface was 44.04%, which is higher than PEI 25K group (35.90%) and saline group (24.03%) (**P < 0.01). In zebra fish, the angiogenesis increased with the increase of N/P ratios of Alg-g-PEI/pVEGF complexes in our studied range; when N/P ratio was 110, the optimal angiogenesis was obtained with vessel length of 1.11 mm and area of 1.70 x 10(3) pixels, which is higher than saline group (0.69 mm and 0.94 x 10(3) pixels) (**P < 0.01) and PEI 25k group (0.82 mm and 1.11 x 10(3) pixels) (**P < 0.01). Our results demonstratethat Alg-g-PEI/pVEGF significantly induces angiogenesis in CAM and zebra fish, and has a great potential in therapeutic angiogenesis.

Objective To explore the correlation between polymorphism of interleukin-28B(IL-28B) rs12979860 T/ C and susceptibility of hepatocellular carcinoma( HCC). Methods All eligible case-control studies published up to 2014-09-30 were identified by searching PubMed,EMBase,CNKI,CBM,VIP and WanFang databases. Two reviews independently identified the literature according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Meta-analysis was performed using Rev Man 5. 2 and Stata 12. 0 software. Results A total of 6 stud-ies comprising 1 138 cases and 955 controls were finally included. Meta-analysis showed that IL-28B rs12979860 T/ C polymorphism was associated with the susceptibility of HCC. Compared with the genotype CC and CT + CC,genotype TT increased the risk of suffering from HCC(TT vs CC:OR = 2. 26,95% CI:1. 40-3. 64,Z = 3. 33,P = 0. 000 9;TT vs CT + CC:OR = 1. 90,95% CI:1. 23-2. 93,Z = 2. 89,P = 0. 004). In stratification analysis by ethnicity,we observed that the polymorphism of IL-28B rs12979860 T/ C was associat-ed with the susceptibility of HCC among Caucasian populations(TT vs CC:OR = 2. 06,95% CI:1. 22-3. 47, Z = 2. 70,P = 0. 007;TT vs CT + CC:OR = 1. 71,95% CI:1. 07-2. 72,Z = 2. 23,P = 0. 03). Conclusion The polymorphism of IL-28B rs12979860 T/ C is associated with the susceptibility of HCC,genotype TT may increase the susceptibility to HCC.
